Back to Episodes💍 Pulling a Beyoncé & Following No One — Social Media Experiments with Melissa Word
Description
What would happen if you unfollowed everyone on Instagram? And what feelings come up when you think about it?
In this episode, I have a fun and insightful conversation about doing just that with Melissa Word.
Melissa is an artist, dancer, writer, and somatic facilitator. Together, we talk about how social media experiments have affected her digital and creative habits.
Tune in to hear more about:
- How unfollowing everyone created an intentional Instagram experience for Melissa
- How much codependency and people-pleasing is tangled up in who we choose to follow or not
- Protecting & respecting your attention
